Where is My Gear Fluid Dipstick??

[tomcomet]

I spend over 30 minutes searching for my gear oil dipstick and filler. I had the understanding that is was under a small access plate right side by the feet of right seat. There is a hatch there and yes, it opens up with screws revealing hydraulic fittings and the side of the resevior cylinder but no dipstick or filler to be seen.

This is the a 1977 Reims build Skymaster WITH radar pod so my centre console where most folks tell me they have auto pilot and access hatch below is filled with radar screen and such. I am told the dipstick is behind that but how to access???

Here is a photo.
